Architectural Designs

which computer science subject should i choose?

I'm an Engineering(Mechatronics)/Computer Science student. I need to choose 2 of the following for my electives: 1. Database Applications Database System Architectural Principles Data models Theory of database design Query Optimization Storage Strategies Query Processing Transaction Processing 2. Web Application Development HTTP HTML and XML JavaBeans Design Patterns (e.g., Abstract Factories and Model-View-Controller) Tag Libraries (JSTL) Relational Databases (MySQL/JDBC) Object-Relation Mapping tools (BeanFactory) Security (including SSL) Web Services (SOAP/WSDL/UDDI) Frameworks (Struts) Internationalization Scalability and Performance Issues 3. Computer Graphics basic image processing geometric transformations geometric modeling of curves and surfaces animation 3-D viewing visibilit All of them looks quite interesting to me. Please explain to me which subject is more important/useful to me as a Mechatronics student towards my future career. ps:Mechatronics=mecha+tronics Thanks!

1. 1 and 2
2. i too studied comp. eng & applied math and it really all depends on what you want to do w/your career. not being familiar with mechatronics I would suggest the best bets are web app dev. these types of jobs are always in demand. database is very useful. if not as a dev of databases then for sure as a user.
3. 2 & 3 are very intresting. im computer science student, too.
